Could this be confused with a gun?

A) THEY ARE TRAINED TO
B) AFTER AWHILE WITH no mental health treatment WHICH THE TRAVELLING SW CAN PROVIDE IN AN NIFORMAL WAY they get corrupt, they get PTSD, they get burned out, they get tired.
C) Being a cop is SUPER stressful in a bad way. :Long periods of boredom and then horror, or just a non stop fun house show, depending where you work. Having to prepare for anything.
D) Cops don't get enough support including pay,. It is NOT all fun and games until someone loses an eye.

Beat me to it, here’s a nice mod and cops won’t confuse it for a gun so no worries there. Looks too much like a live grenade.

LEOs are trained for de-escalating awkward social situations ad nauseum. My best man is retired State Police. He's one of my best friends. Although, I knew a cop who went to jail for being a dick (not formally charhed for that lol). Beside that, everybody has a bad day; even cops. They show up for duty, anyway. In a rare occasion, they are unable to manage their actions , and bad ....uff happens.

Regardless of what an ecig looks like, your hands should be visible and still while being detained by a LEO. If the ecig is found during a pat-down, you will most likely NOT be shot/tased for it lol.

Good choice on the Sig, OP! I carry a P220 .45 due to the current social climate, here in 'Murica!

    what a question! how you ppl take the nightmare i got no idea, there's three violent occupations on three sides of where i grew up (amman) and i felt safer than i would there.. i've lived a few minutes in three continents, watched enough tv for two vegetableheads and have the curiousity of a dumb street cat, never heard of a mistakenly-thought-armed shooting.. don't think ive ever seen an unholstered gun even, cept for the dangling machine guns on shoulders' soldiers in Beirut and border areas, back when there were places to travel by land around.. then again i guess i've just acknowledged that i'm used to a diff nightmare lol. nice looking mod though...

    I think I would rather have a grenade mod than a gun mod. The person holding the grenade has the power because if they die, everyone dies.

    I think that's the idea anyway. I don't think there is a special holster for grenades that is easily recognizable either. Again, I could be wrong.

    lmao_ the grenades that you pop sometimes! someone should name a cocktail or weed strain after you some day youre so trippy:lol:

    Uh, no I meant if you were holding the grenade with the pin almost out, and someone shot you, you'd pull it out the rest of the way, or like it would go off when you fell down if someone shot you dead.

    I thought grenades were like the ultimate game of chicken, unless you are in a bunker lobbing them at the enemy? Maybe I am watching the wrong kind of movies. IDK. But I have been so habituated by the spouse and son, I can't even DEAL with like, romantic comedies. :If there are no fast cars, things blowing up, Vin Diesel and the Transporter guy in the movie also never hurts, it's how you get chicks to watch those things.

    I realize they take a little poetic license I mean "Shoot ';em Up" is one of my favorite movies and etc.

    I don't think "Anna" is super exciting for naming anything. But if I could have the privilege of naming the strain well, that would be fine with me. LOL.

    We all know how ignorant some are about vaping...

    Perhaps it just me as I’m searching for the best small, conceal carry?

    If your that worried just get a pod mod for when your out and about (they are handy for that any day of the week because they are throw and go's)

    I'm just not that worried honestly, so I wouldn't be worried if I was you. I mean, where are you going with it anyway? Work? Car? Grocery store?

    I wouldn't be worried, just don't pull it out of your purse when cops are trying to arrest you.... do you get arrested a lot?

    I haven't even been pulled over for a minor traffic violation in the last decade...

    "Pop Tart" suspension should be upheld, school official says - CBS News
    Oh boy... it just a freakin pop tart. The child may have had a history of being disruptive but who cares what the pop tart looked like. When I was in first grade (off topic but just popped into my mind) another boy told me "boys are the hot dog, girls are the bun"... actually made sense for me at that age (it was a good thing but now they would have suspended the kid for saying that) Seemed very harmless but then again it was the 1960's.

    On a sidenote... Hostess "ding dongs" and "ho-hos" (I suppose the names might sound suggestive but didn't they actually get them backwards?)
    Now the old school candy cigarettes with the powedered sugar smoke... not that was just wrong!
    I know this thread is way off topic, but it does show how we have all become so afraid to be judged (even to the point of being afraid a cop might shoot us... sad but true, and the poor kids grow up with all these fears)
